Following its premiere (and eight-minute standing ovation) at the Venice Film Festival, a new featurette has arrived online for Dune which sees director Denis Villeneuve and cast members Timothee Chalamet, Oscar Isaac, Jason Momoa, Josh Brolin, Rebecca Ferguson, David Dastmalchian, Stellan Skargard, Dave Bautista, Javier Bardem, Sharon Duncan-Brewster, and Zendaya discussing the Royal Houses featured in the Frank Herbert adaptation; check it out below, along with a new poster…
A mythic and emotionally charged hero’s journey, “Dune” tells the story of Paul Atreides, a brilliant and gifted young man born into a great destiny beyond his understanding, who must travel to the most dangerous planet in the universe to ensure the future of his family and his people. As malevolent forces explode into conflict over the planet’s exclusive supply of the most precious resource in existence—a commodity capable of unlocking humanity’s greatest potential—only those who can conquer their fear will survive.
